Learn how to be more effective in business

Two courses coming up later this month from Cambridge Network's Learning Collaboration are designed to help you become more effective in business. The first will teach you how to take meeting minutes with confidence, while the other introduces coaching - putting it into context, explaining its place in an organisation and the role it plays in helping people to learn, grow and stay motivated under stress.

Minute-taking with confidence: writing effective minutes on Monday 18 June, kindly hosted at Eagle Labs (7-8 Clifton Court, Cherry Hinton Road, CB1 7BN) is a single day workshop that will help you to prepare, produce and polish minutes with confidence.

We all have our views on meetings and, to a great extent, what we think of them depends on their purpose, formality, duration and usefulness. However, it would be a rare individual indeed who relished the prospect of writing the minutes.

Minutes provide a summary of what was discussed and a record of agreed actions and outputs, yet so often these are published too late to be of any use. Why is it that we put off this important task? What do we fear? Why are so many minutes unreadable and useless?

Designed for delegates at all levels, this course includes both writing skills and interpersonal techniques. It will also build the confidence you need to take control and elicit the information you need to write excellent minutes.
